YMCA of the USA - www.ymca.net
is the national resource office for U.S. YMCAs and exists to serve these YMCAs. The YMCA of the USA is not a facility, and it does not provide direct programs and services to the public. Each YMCA is separate and autonomous from the YMCA of the USA, and each YMCA makes its own decisions based on local community needs. It is based in Chicago, with satellite offices around the country.
Together, the nation's 2,617 YMCAs are the largest not-for-profit community service organization in America, working to meet the health and human service needs of 20.2 million men, women and children in 10,000 communities in the United States. YMCAs are at the heart of community life across the country: 42 million families and 72 million households are located within three miles of a YMCA. Visit the YMCA of USA website for more information.
